Jenny McCarthy says she couldn't have asked God for better than Jim Carrey  
Tuesday, October 2nd, 2007

Jenny McCarthy was gushing to Extra today about Jim Carrey.  "Amazing, he's a really great guy.  I couldn't have asked for God to bring me a better person in our lives," she said.  "I think we've come into Jim's life just as wonderfully as he's come into ours...I do care for him a lot and so does Evan."

But she's not planning on expanding their brood:  "I hate saying the word never, because then the universe goes 'oh yeah!'  But universe, I choose not to.  I'm happy with my beautiful light ball Evan and my cutie boyfriend Jim.  I'm done."

Jenny's son Evan, 5 years old, was diagnosed with autism when he was just three.  The mother and son duo were featured on the cover of People magazine at the end of last month, where she talked about their struggle with autism and Evan's remarkable progress.

"I don't want to come across like a preacher," she said.  "All I'm doing is showing there are things you can do to ease autism."  And she gushed back then as well about how Jim was with her son:  "Jim reacted better than anyone ever did.  He was intrigued.  He asked questions...Beyond doubt it was written in the stars that Jim and Evan were a pair.  He's actually helped Evan get past some obstacles I couldn't."

McCarthy has put her experience's with her son's condition into words in the just-published, Louder than Words: A mother's Journey in Healing Autism.
